AN 11-year-old child was charged with murder for "shooting and killing a 62-year-old woman in a remote Colorado cabin," cops say.
Montrose County Sheriff’s Office said they arrested the unnamed minor, who is accused of second-degree murder, after the death of Karmen Keefauver on December 19.
The young suspect is being held at Grand Mesa Youth Services.
A touching picture of the devoted grandma with her two grandchildren on was shared on Facebook on December 20.

The Western Colorado Poolplayers Association (APA) also issued their condolences to Keefauver's family on Facebook.
"On behalf of the Western Colorado APA, I'd like to give warm condolences," the statement read.
"I know times are already rough, however, please keep them [the Keefauver family] in your thoughts and prayers friends!! Thank you."
